GDM without Accessibility Dialog

Question

I would like to disable the accessibility icon on the top right corner of GDM. I tryed insert some keys at the gconf, but thoses commands gave me no results:

gconftool --type Boolean --set /desktop/gnome/interface/accessibility false
gconftool --type Boolean --set /desktop/gnome/applications/at/screen_magnifier_enabled false
gconftool --type Boolean --set /desktop/gnome/applications/at/screen_keyboard_enabled false
gconftool --type Boolean --set /desktop/gnome/applications/at/screen_reader_enabled false

I found those keys on GDM 3.14 Manual. I'm Using Ubuntu Gnome 14.10 and GDM 3.14.1.

Does anyone knows what did I do wrong?

There's quite a while that Gnome had change GDM files infrastructure, those files don't exist any more. I also checked the extension, but doesn't work. The manual says that it can be changed through the GConf. — tuliomarchetto, Jan 27 '15 at 23:57
Right, I could see js UI files in source but not in installed packages. — user.dz, Jan 28 '15 at 21:22

gconf has been replaced with dconf long time ago. See When to use gconf vs dconf? - around Dec 2011

Try:

dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/a11y/always-show-universal-access-status false

or

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.a11y always-show-universal-access-status false

Better to use dconf-editor (GUI tool) to browse all available options.
